Varieties of Marble.

here are many different varieties of marble in use, both domestic and im- ported, and most of them arc very ex- pcnsivc. The white Italian is the com. monest kind used, but white is rather going out of fashion now and colorcd marbles arc becoming more popular. The most widely used is the Tennessee marble, which is very beautiful stone, and as extensive as many of the imported varieties. The most popular foreign marble is the Formosa (''the beau- tifur'), stone of pretty purple-brown hue, slightly marked and clouded, no two shades being alike. The Mexican onyx is the most beautiful and most ex- pensivc of all, and is worth twenty five cents per pound in the block. Jas per is also popular perhaps because it is suggestive of the new Jerusalem, and coral marble, from the Pacific Islands, is also much in favor. We also get good many fine varieties from Algeria, but most of the foreign marbles come from Italy. America, should add, also pro- duces an excellent black marble. Fl Bes- ton Traveller.

The Homes of England.

It is very delightful to find ones self one of these English country residen- ces. says Oliver Wendall Holmes in the Atlantic, The house is commonly old and has history. It is oftentimes it. self record, like that old farmhouse my friend John Bellows wrote to me about, which chronicled half a dozen reigns by architectural marks as exactly as if it had been an official register. ::'The stately homes of England" as we see them at Wilton and Longford Castle are not more admirable in their splen- dors than the "blessed homes of Eng land" in their modest beauty. Every where one may see here old parsonages by tho side of ivy-mantled churches, and the comfortable mansions where genera tions of country squires have lived in peace, while their sons have gone forth to fight Englaud's battles, and carry her flags of war and commerce. all over the world. We in America can hardly be said to have such possession as fami- ly home. We encamp-not under can- vas, but in fabrics of wood or more lasting materials which are pulled down after brief occupancy, by the builders, and possibly their children, or are mod crnized SO that the former dwellers in them would never recognize their old habitations.

Unveiling an Ind al Image.

A rock which the Sioux Indians near Fort Yates, D. T., have worshippcd for generations as the petrifieI form of a young squaw was formally unveiled the other day and dedicated to peace and plenty. It appears that the white sct- tiers of the place have long supposed that this specimen of natures art work excrtcd Q restraining influence on the Indians, but of late the rock was re- moved from its original resting place, and it was feared that with its removal its charm had disappeared. So the sug- gcstion was made to Sitting Bull that the statue be placed upon permanent pedestal and unveiled with appropriate ceremonies. This p eased the chieftain, and 500 Indians assembled to take part in the strange medley of Christian and pagan rites by which the unveiling was accompanied.

Buffalo Bill Cowboys.

I should greatly like to say few wor-s respecting topic which I much regret to find is understood in the in. verse proportion to which it is discussed, says Buffalo Bill to London Globe h. tervicwcr. l refer to that unique spcci- men of humanity, tho cowboy of to-day. In order to be brief will, like COW. boy, take the bull by the horns, and lay down the axiom, once for all, and most emphatically, that cowboy is not a blackguard; nay, more, he is in nine cases out of ten better than his fello ws, more especially as in nine c,s,s out of ten his fellows are the off spring of an effete civilization. He has certain attributes that commend him to creation. He is manly, generous and brave. He is not merely 0 creature of impulse, but uses the gifts given him by his Maker with discretion which might well be copied by more of us. In putting in these few words for a class of men who have only to be understood to be admired, Ispeak after years of study resulting in conviction which nothing can shake.

Profits In City Restaurants.

Fifteen cents will purchase good meal in any of tho average restaurants in this city. It consists of beafsteak or some other meat, potatoes and bread and butter. These are we'll served and sufficient quantity is given to satisfy m ordinary appetite. Of course the profit to the restaurant proprietor is small and a great number of these meals must be sold each day to make the business pay. A Park row proprietor gives the follow ing idea of how it is conducted:
 "The profit in fifteen cent meals is very small," he said. "Two or threc cents is all that we calculate to, make under the most favorable circumstances Sometimes we lose money. It depends altogether upon the prices current in the market. Oar standard has to be main- tained at all hazards. There is no money in the business at any time unless you have a large number of customers. To make an exact estimate of our profits week by week or day by day woull be impossible. We have to go by an aver ago for the year. But there are other articles served with these meals which leave very fair margin for profit, sucl as coffee, tea, pudding, etc. We calcu late to make money at all times in selling them, and they make the fifteen cen meals possibility, There is also good profit in side dishes of vegetables, bcets, peas, squash and corn, so that although we may be losing money on our meats our general average is pretty we'll main taincd throughout the year. One thing however, you may be sure of, you will rarely get wholesome fifteen cent meal in small place. They cannot aff 'rI tt serve them. .'- New York Mail and Ex- press.

Cautious Turkish Usurers-

It is related that young Perote, rne only son of a very wealthy man, who led very fast life, presented himself one day to saraf, and asked him to loan him round sum of money. He offered the saraf as security the serious illness and approaching death of his father, and the inheritance that would follow.
 But your father may recover" said the saraf.
 Impossible, replied the young Perotc; "he has chronic dropsy; he can not live more than five days"
 ''No one knows this. Do not Iut your trust in it. Everything depends upon the physician. ....-
 "rhe physician is MT. L." replied the tender hearted sou.
 Exactly so; he is very skillful phy- s;c:an, and you will sec that he will pull his patient through all right. In any event, can not loan that sum at this moment. Come again day after to- morrow"
 They saraf utilized this delay by going to the house of the physician named at the time that tho latter made his visits in the city. He found tho servant and offered him generous gratuity if he would learn from his master the disease with which MT. Y, the patient of the physician, was stricken; whether it was mortal, and if so, how many days still remained to the patient. The servant obtained very quickly from his master all that the saraf desired to know, and he went immediately to assure the latter upon the prompt and fatal issue of the disease. When the young man returned, he found the money ready, signed the note for sum nearly double that given to him, and six weeks after paid the debt from the patrimony that he had just received.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

The heart has reasons that reason does not understand.
 Meaus are always in our power: ends very seldom so.
 Make children love you if you wish them to obey you:
 Every day brings with it some op- portunity to do good:
 Sow good services; sweet remembran- ces will grow from them.
 Lamentation without effort, bctrays weakness and wickedncss. Purposes, like eggs, unless they be matched into action, will run into decay.
 Commerce defies every wind, outridcs every tempest and invadcs every zone.
 Don't seem to be on tho lookout for crows, else you'll set other people watch ing.
 If good people would but made good ness agreeable, and smile instead of frowning in their virtue, how many would they gain to the good cause! Consume little time in regret. The best repentance is reformation. What tears of contrition arc powerless to effect an altered life easily accom- | plishes. This life is but the beginning of life that is to be broader, better, longer and far more plcasurable than this; life where happiness is secured by being | good continually.
 Children have full use of their eyes and cars before their tongues have mastered language, and, consequently, are learn ing lessons of good or evil sooner than msny suppose.
 Grit is the grain of character. It may l generally be described as heroism ma. tcralized, spirit and will thrust into heart, brain and backbone, so as to form part of the physical substance of the man.
 The path of truth is as straight os an arrow. It never swerves to the right or left, and will no sooner bend to the mightlest than to the meanest of mor- tals. The moment truth tries to accom- modate itsolf 10 circumstances it ceases 1 to be truth
